Warm Welcome

The competition paintings were turned in and being judged. Awards and sale later this day. As long as I was in town, I decided to get in another painting.

I had been past this house several times. Although not particularly noteworthy, this orange door always caught my eye. As I began this painting, the title came to me. Seems as though the title helped keep me on track with the value, color and temperature decisions. Fun painting.

While I painted, a nearby homeowner approached me. I wondered if I was going to be scolded for standing in the road. Interesting conversation as he was not fully aware of the Cedarburg Plein Air event. I was happy to see that our conversation was positive and that he was in attendance that evening.
